How does it work?

~ From your home

If your pet has passed away at home with you, all you need to do is contact us and we can guide you through the rest. You can bring your pet to us for immediate burial or we can collect your pet from home. Please note that home collection is only offered within a 30 mile radius of our site. Please ask for a collection fee quote.

~ From your Vets

If your pet is at your vets, contact us with the practice details, and we will arrange the collection of your pet within 48 hours. You will need to grant permission to your vet for Northumberland Woodland Burials to collect your pet and we will take care of the rest.

~ Ashes

Ashes can be buried or scattered within Griffin Wood and you can bring these to us on the day. All the information that we require will be collected over the phone or via email when you book in.

For ashes burial, ashes must be poured directly into the ground. No caskets allowed.

~ Attended and unattended burials

When each burial plot is purchased you will be asked if you wish to attend the burial. Some owners simply find it too difficult to attend the burial of a loved pet, in this case, we will do this for you. If in the future you wish to visit, we will happily meet with you to show you where the plot is located.

We are the largest pet burial woodland in Northumberland. Plots for pets fall into two categories, burial plots and ashes plots. All plots can be purchased in advance or at the time of need. The cost depends on the weight, if your pet does not fall into any of the categories below, please contact us for a tailored quote. We bury all animals with the exception of livestock.
